Did Rihanna rip off famed photographer for her new video? S&M strikingly similar to David LaChapelle's work

It's not unusual for one artist to seek inspiration from another in their work.

But Rihanna's latest music video is so similar to that of a famed photographer that she has been accused of plagiarism.

Many of the key scenes in the 22-year-old's recently released S&M video correspond with photographs by David LaChapelle.

One scene shows Rihanna 'walking' gossip blogger on a leash, while dressed in late. It corresponds with a 2002 LaChapelle image for Vogue, Aristocrats, which shows a similar scene.

The similarities were spotted by fans of the photographer, who flooded his fan pages on Facebook and Twitter with comments.

A source at his studio told celebrity blog Radar that initially fans though LaChapelle had directed the video.

Adam Magyar "Urban Flow"

#247, Hong Kong, 2007, archival inkjet print, 26×240cm, from series Urban Flow

detail view of picture #247

Adam born in Budapest in 1972, Adam Magyar lives and works in Berlin. Ever fascinated by the constant hum of all megalopolis, Adam Magyar offers a new approach of time and space.

For Urban Flow, Adam Magyar uses cameras usually geared for photo-finish ; i.e. an instantaneous  vertical screening of one pixel from a fixed point ; in order to capture not so much a few seconds but rather several (2  to 3) minutes of such urban landscapes. Thus , static objects become linear, whereas those in motion are pictures with relative degrees of reality as far as their motion-speed is concerned. With neither starting nor finishing points, such beings evolve in the midst of a universe akin to them.  "We are born, live and die as so many individuals , but also as as tiny motes in our own man-made structure we call cities or collectivities", explains Magyar. Like Contemporary Vanities, the artist , thanks to imagery, redefines the transient characteristic of the time allotted to us on an infinite linear scale.

David LaChapelle to nie tylko moda. Zobaczcie jego "krajobrazy"!

Z cyklu "Land Scapes", fot. David LaChapelle

Kojarzymy go przede wszystkim z fotografią mody, portretami celebrytów czy lekko surrealistycznymi ukłonami dla Warhola - tymczasem David LaChapelle uwiecznia też miniaturowe krajobrazy

LaChapelle teoretycznie porzucił fotografię mody jeszcze w 2006 roku, na krótką chwilę znikając z życia publicznego. Cykle "Land Scapes" i "Gas" są jednak kolejnym dowodem na to, że z aparatem nie jest łatwo zerwać; modelki zostały zastąpione przez miniaturowe stacje benzynowe konstruowane z materiałów pochodzących z recyklingu i starannie budowane mini-rafinerie. To następne projekty (po "Self Portrait as a House" oraz "Still Life"), które z poprzednią działalnością Davida nie mają wiele wspólnego.

What Is The Difference Between a Parabolic Reflector, a Beauty Dish, and an Octobox?

When it comes to shaping the light sources photographers use, there are a lot of modifiers available. Each lighting modifier has it’s own characteristics which can make it difficult to determine the best light for your project. Karl Taylor has produced one of the best videos I’ve ever seen showing exactly how the light fall off, contrast, and specularity differs between the parabolic reflectors, beauty dish, and large octabox softbox.

Photo LA 2014 Stuns Opening Night Making It The Best Year Ever

Shot at Photo LA 2014 Franceasca Seiden

Photo LA 2014 opened last week at the top of its game. Los Angeles Photographic Art Exposition 23rd annual event took place at the Historic LA Mart Building in Downtown Los Angeles. Along with LA Art Show, Downtown LA is rapidly becoming the mecca for LA artists and collectors to gather for quality events celebrating LA’s Visual Art World. This was my first time ever visiting the LA Mart, a beautiful building nestled in underdeveloped parts of DTLA, amongst warehouses and bodegas, an area that will soon experience its fill of street art, fingers crossed.

Fashion at Stanford: Annie Leibovitz, Pascal Dangin, & Cathy Horyn

Photo via Stanford Arts Institute

Annie Leibovitz has an impressive four decade career in photo-journalism and images of some of the world’s most prominent rock stars, poets, and government leaders stored in the boxes of negatives lining her attic. Pascal Dangin, founder of Box Studios and CEO and Creative Director of KiDS, has been referred to over the years as the ‘photo whisperer’, a digital artist, and the retoucher’s retoucher. Both are highly respected throughout the world of art, and recently came to speak before a full house of eager Stanford students and community members.  In this second Fashion at Stanford conversation, these image-makers addressed their works and their creative paths. As stated by Leibovitz, “there are two sides to taking a picture.”

Alongside Cathy Horyn, fashion critic for The New York Times and curator of Fashion at Stanford, the conversation moved from Leibovitz’s original landscape photography to the influence of Snapchat on the lexicon of the photographic language. Leibovitz highlighted her experience photographing the Queen, and Dangin discussed whether editing actually enhances an image’s quality.

questionnaire: What kinds of information would you want to read on my blog?

I'll be waiting for your answer on my blog :)

via Jezebel: The Art and Science of Retouching: What Really Happens to Those Photos

It's not just Lena Dunham — every photo you see in every magazine and on every billboard has likely had some sort of retouching done. That's common knowledge. But what's actually involved in the process? We talked to a photographer and a couple of retouchers to learn what actually happens behind the scenes.

"Post-production really, really is an amazing and important part of what we do today," says commercial photographer Doug Sonders. In the days of film, post-production changes were prohibitively expensive and the necessary expertise was rare. Nowadays, though, you can shoot a car and driver in a white studio, then drop them into a desert. 

It's not necessarily the photographer doing all that work, though. Sonders estimates that he retouches "maybe 75 to 80 percent of my own imagery," but outsources the biggest stuff to a professional retoucher. And it took him a year to find the right one: "The funny thing with Photoshop is, it's not like there's one tool if you want to switch somebody's head out—there's 10 different ways to do it, technologically. and each one has a different visual style." He compares it to the way you can recut the Mrs. Doubtfire into a trailer for a horror movie.

via Jezebel: Here Are the Unretouched Images From Lena Dunham's Vogue Shoot

Within two hours of offering $10,000 for unretouched images from Annie Leibovitz's photography session with the HBO star, we received six allegedly unaltered images. As expected, they're great — Lena looks fantastic. Aside from the obvious lighting tweaks that any publication would make, the unretouched images are pretty perfect. Which makes some of the adjustments — slightly narrowing a jaw or raising a waistline — seem that much more unnecessary. Why bother? These slight tweaks, the "you look great, but you'd look just a little more great if..." stuff is insidious.

But this is what Vogue does, and it's interesting to see what Leibovitz and editor-in-chief Anna Wintour felt that they needed to "fix" before pictures of Lena could be presented to readers.

New ‘Moment’ smartphone Lenses Claim Unmatched Image and Build Quality

Image credits: All images courtesy of Moment

Considering the plethora of smartphone lens add-ons on the market, it will probably surprise you to learn that new kid on the block Moment and their two lenses for iPhone and Galaxy devices achieved full funding in just ONE DAY. They did this with one simple promise: that these lenses are the world’s best lenses for your phone. Period.

It’s a lofty proclamation to make, but with decades of experience designing and manufacturing cinematic lenses under their belt, the Moment team are confident their product can stand up to the scrutiny this claim will bring.

Allen Henson Is Being Sued for Photographing a Model Topless on the Empire State Building Observation Deck

Image via allenhenson on Instagram

The owners of the Empire State Building are suing controversial photographer Allen Henson for $1 million after he took a few photos of a topless model on the landmark's observation deck this past summer. The lawsuit claims that Henson did not obtain permission for the shoot and that he damaged the building's rep as a "safe and secure family friendly tourist attraction." They also said that Henson's stunt was "potentialy dangerous" and want to have him banned from the site.

Jesse Hazelip Critiques the American Prison System in His New Exhibition at Jonathan LeVine Gallery

When I visited Jonathan LeVine Gallery the day before the opening of Jesse Hazelip’s “Love Lock: Cycle of Violence,” the gallery was abuzz with pre-installation fervor. Framed ballpoint drawings lay, meticulous arranged, on the gallery floor, later to be made vertical. Other works—printed wheatpaste cutouts on bold stenciled backgrounds and reclaimed wood panels from an abandoned prison in Upstate New York—leaned gently against the walls. “Love Lock,” documenting the injustices of the American prison system, is Hazelip’s first solo exhibition in New York.

Interview: Alison Jackson, the Artist Behind the Fake Photo of Kanye and North West, Talks the Cult of Celebrity

Kate Middleton, Prince William, and Prince George / Image via Alison Jackson

Alison Jackson's staged photographs of celebrity lookalikes are so real that they've caused media scandals. Her seductive images of private moments between stars have been mistaken for real paparazzi shots...and maybe that's the point. But there's more.

Exploring "the cult of celebrity" as she calls it, Jackson's work mimics trashy tabloid spreads to question why we are so obsessed with people who we have no hope of ever knowing. From Kate Middleton to Kanye West, Jackson explores our relationship with private celebrity images. Like pornography, they seem illicit something we're not supposed to be viewing, but this feeling of trespassing makes it impossible to look away.

When we posted Jackson's image of fake Kanye West with baby North last week, the photo received a ton of attention (both positive and negative) online. It's these impassioned reactions that Jackson hopes to incite with her art. We spoke to Jackson about working with lookalikes, the influence of Andy Warhol, and the rise of selfies. She also told us that she's looking for a Miley Cyrus lookalike, especially one that knows how to twerk.

The 50 Greatest Street Photographers Right Now /by Jennifer Wood/

The proliferation of Instagram-ready smartphones has been both a boon and a detriment to the art of street photography. On one hand, it has brought about a renewed interest in the innovators and pioneers of the genre—people like Eugène Atget, who is widely considered the godfather of the genre, or Henri Cartier-Bresson, who had a knack for catching people at the exact moment they did something interesting. On the other hand, it has convinced many wannabe shooters that anyone with a working cell phone and a decent filtering app has the ability to capture something beautiful. And maybe they’re right. But it doesn’t change the fact that there’s an art to this art, and that some folks are just more in tune with the rhythm of street photography than others.

Compiling any sort of “list” is always a challenging task, as the nature of being constrained by a number will inevitably mean that plenty of deserving talents will be left off (at least for this year). And when it comes to the 50 photographers featured here, we aimed to be as all-encompassing as possible; no restrictions were set in terms of geography, age, style, or experience. The only adamant criterion is that the artist is currently contributing to the craft.

ARTYŚCI: Szymon Brodziak, Sebastian Cviq, Kuba Dąbrowski, Przemek Dzienis, Karol Grygoruk, Iza Grzybowska, Irenka Kalicka, Marcin Kempski, Agnieszka Kulesza & Łukasz Pik, Diana Lelonek & Mateusz Cyrankowski, Magdalena Ławniczak, Weronika Ławniczak, Adam Pluciński,

Założeniem wystawy "2 m² Mody" jest pokazanie tego, co nowe, świeże i aktualne w obszarze młodej polskiej fotografii mody. Składają się na nią prace twórców rzadko goszczących w obiegu galeryjnym, lecz publikujących na łamach wysokonakładowych czasopism kolorowych i realizujących sesje reklamowe, często o zasięgu międzynarodowym. Obok nich pojawia się grupa artystów, którzy wykorzystują język mody do tworzenia osobistych wizualnych narracji oraz konstruowania estetycznych komunikatów.

EXHIBITION 17 January - 22 February 2014

ARTISTS: Szymon Brodziak, Sebastian Cviq, Kuba Dąbrowski, Przemek Dzienis, Karol Grygoruk, Iza Grzybowska, Irenka Kalicka, Marcin Kempski, Agnieszka Kulesza & Łukasz Pik, Diana Lelonek & Mateusz Cyrankowski, Magdalena Ławniczak, Weronika Ławniczak, Adam Pluciński, Agata Pospieszyńska, Mateusz Stankiewicz, Łukasz Ziętek

The idea of "2 m² of Fashion" is to show the new developments in the area of young Polish fashion photography. The exhibition displays works of artists who seldom appear in galleries, but instead successfully publish their photographs in large-circulation glossy magazines and work on advertising photo sessions, often for worldwide campaigns. Alongside with them we present a group of artists who use the language of fashion to create their own visual narrations and to construct aesthetic expressions. Thus, the exhibition presents renowned photographers together with those at the beginning of their careers.

Tomáš Mareček: NYC TRANSFERS /Martina Grmolenská/

Od 16. ledna do 25. února se v malé žižkovské galerii Polagraph uskuteční výstava mladého fotografa Tomáše Marečka, jednoho z největších českých experimentátorů s instantní fotografií.

 “Než jsem zhruba před osmi lety začal fotit, věnoval jsem se malbě, a tak za tu dobu moje práce prošly docela zásadním vývojem. Začínal jsem s digitální zrcadlovkou, pak jsem přešel k analogu, přes středoformát a lomo, až jsem finálně zakotvil u Leicy, velkoformátu a Polaroidu.„, vypráví Tomáš o své lásce k fotografii. Fotografie je pro něj stále především zábavou, což dokazují nejenom jeho nekonečné experimenty s technikou, ale i fakt, že se jí už mnoho let věnuje denně – v pracovní době v obchodě s fototechnikou a mimo ni při cestování po světě se svojí oblíbenou Leicou na krku.
